The Phantom Corsair is a prototype automobile built in 1938. It is a six-passenger 2-door sedan that was designed by Rust Heinz of the H. J. Heinz family and Maurice Schwartz of the Bohman & Schwartz coachbuilding company in Pasadena, California.
Although sometimes dismissed as a failure because it never entered production, the Corsair is regarded as ahead of its time because of its futuristic features, and styling cues such as faired-in fenders and a low profile.
I saw one once on static display. Itâs face was like something right out of a lagoon. Very cool.
I really do like the mid and rear and interior of this car. Very cool.
I love the âout of the boxâ thinking on the driving position.
It is such a cool concept car in so many ways. . . .
It looks to be tons of slow moving ponderous metal.
Wouldnât bother me. I do speed limits mostly and like the feel of cars of that vintage; a friend of mine had a â38 Plymouth for a few decades, loved riding and driving that.
I understand.
My driving of such vehicles has been borderline unpleasant, these cars drive like trucks. Looks alone does nothing for me.
Here, however, the car looks heavy in its styling as well. It is, of course, an expression of its time.
I bet it is incredibly well done with beautiful metal work and astoundingly pretty paint.
I understandâthey do drive like trucks. Iâve driven my share of those, as part of work assignments, and have gotten used to and even sort of enjoyed that âfeel.â And I like to WORK at driving rather than this modern driving where so much is powered and done for one!
The interesting thing for me is I like nimbleness and speed on two wheels (though not really speed as much as many other motorcyclists) but like to just roll along nice and easy and âcontrolledâ on fourâinterestingly Iâve been hurt in cars and not on motorcyles. That probably plays into it.

Itâs all about the craftsmanship and creativity for me.
I had a 69 Olds with a 455 motor with two dead cylinders and no speedometer. Before phones and GPS. I drove that car for over five years. (Gas was 45 cents a gallon)
At two different times I had two different 1964 Dodge 440 models with push button automatic. Cool cars!
The 383 was always my favorite Mopar motor. The 440 was strong, but the sound the 383 made, a perfect RAP RAP RAP haunts me to this day.
Very cool-looking but I wouldnât want to parallel park it. 
I did back in the day. Everything was easier then.
oh, those old days when I could differentiate car brands and models
